This is basically an argument against education in general.

No one learns anything useful. "Education" is just a set of credentials that prove your IQ test wasn't a fluke.

To me, that is just an absurd view of reality.



I don't think people are advocating that education itself is just a signaling of inherent ability. This would be like saying it's pointless for an athlete to train because their maximum athletic ability is pretty much determined.
